Normalizer: A Case Tool to Normalize Relational Database Schemas

Abstract:

Relational Database Schemas represent the database schema as a collection of relation schemas. Sometimes, these relation schemas are poorly designed and need to be decomposed in an attempt to choose "good" relation schemas. In this stuty, we used the theory of relational database normalization to develop a case tool, called Normalizer, to automate the process of relational database normalization.
